SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Starting with Hegel's thoughts on hierarchical relations, Taylor (English, Loughborough U., Britain) explores literary representations of master-slave and master-servant relationships in works by Thomas Carlyle and others. He takes such relationships by type: violent, intellectual, combined, music, and popular. Other authors he considers are Wilkie Collins, George Eliot, Charles Dickens, Frederick Douglass, Richard Wagner. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
